#Tejpal Takes Over Twitter

The irony has not been missed. Tehelka, which boasts of revealing the nefarious underbelly of corruption, now finds itself embroiled in controversy. Editor-in-chief Tarun Tejpal has landed himself in huge controversy after molesting his employee at an event in Goa. ‘#tejpal’ is trending on Twitter, and this is what the celebs have to say about it all.

1. Kiran Bedi, Social Activist

What kind of fathers of the kind of #Tejpal Singh of #Tehelka must be? Can they be trusted, even with their own daughters?

2. Gaurav Kalra, Journalist

So you can conceive and execute an event called 'Think' but apparently there is no onus on you to think right #Tejpal #Tehelka

3. Kunal Kohli, Film Director

More shocking in the #tejpal case is the casual nature with which #tehelka are trying to dismiss it. Good all media taken up the case now.

4. Kavita Krishnan, Social Activist

Will the trolls attacking Tejpal's daughter quit pretending to be concerned about justice for the woman who faced sexual harassment.

5. Javed Akhtar, Music Composer

It is a shame that some one with such impeccable values has committed such an act but unlike some he has the guts to accept and repent.

6. Shobhaa De, Columnist

Time for a major re-THINK! Zero tolerance for Tarun. What a comedown. Shameful in the extreme.
